Thanks C Paul Le B lÁscension Louisiane --Forwarded Message Attachment-- From: cvanduzee@msn.com Karen I see the descrepancies about the age of Claude Guédry, but I see nothing of what you said referring to Claude's parentage. We have no information to lead us in the correct direction as to the correct age of Claude. The age found in the Laroque census could very well be correct. We notice that Anne is reported to be a Theriot (an obvious copy of the wife in the previous entry). She is also shown as being 38a which could be a copy of Claude's age. But we know that Anne Lejeune was probably 10 yrs. younger. Many census takers over time try to make couples nearly the same age which would explain the ages reported in France. Who has a register copy for Claude's second marriage? Mr. White refers to a dispensation for affinity for this marriage. Were the parents of Claude not listed? Another line of thought begins with the fact that Anne Lejeune's father Germaine took as his second wife Marie Guédry (a daughter of Jean Baptiste hung in Boston and Madeline Mius). This shows a very familial association. I honestly cannot make a conclusion as to who the parents of Claude were. But there is absolutely nothing to show he was from a different brother. .....and his age reported in France could also be correct and he be the son of JB-Madeleine Mius!!! JB was hung in 1726 and Madeleine was barely into her 30's. Many families have a child 10 yrs. after the previous child --- also there could have been many more children in the middle --- they were lost in history or died at a very young age!!! C =
